PsG LE Fender System with steel panel now in place in Södertälje channel

2024-09-11

During 2024, about 50 PsG LE Fender systems have been delivered and installed in the Södertälje channel to protect quays and ships in the channel. Södertälje lock and channel are to be renewed and with that work the safety and accessibility of the waterways through Södertälje and Lake Mälaren are to be improved.

On a cold spring day we inspected the first fenders in place.
The mounting went smooth and easy. The choice of fenders was the PsG LE rubber fender PsG Marine LE Fender with a frontal steel shield with UHMW-PE plastic, for ships to slide against the surface. The rubber legs do their job between the quay and the ship by receiving the energy by impact. The ladders also needed a lift and new PsG steel ladders PsG Marine Steel Ladder were installed. Additional there was a need of about 30 new Bollards.PsG Tee Head Bollard
The purpose of the Mälar project is to improve maritime safety and accessibility in the public waterways through the Södertälje channel for onward journeys into Mälaren. By improving the infrastructure for shipping on Mälaren, the railway and road network, which are heavily loaded, can be relieved.

PsG SAN Arch Fender or PsG SAN-PE Arch Fender

2023-03-30

Our hugely popular PsG SAN Fender is an efficient fender type where the energy/reaction force ratio can be recommended for all types of applications. The PsG SAN Arch Fender is particularly useful for vessels with high allowable hull pressure and for locations where installation space is limited. PsG SAN archfender can be equipped with an extra vulcanized steel plate within the top of the fender. This allows for the installation of a low friction UHMW PE face pad or a steel fender panel or even mounting the fender unit behind a piled structure. This variant is then called the PsG SAN-PE fender.

Characteristics:

Good energy absorption and low reaction force

Proven design

Long service life

Easy to install and replace

Excellent shear resistance

2020-04-27

Since the end of January the new LE-V fender system is mounted and ready to use for the new Lifeboat Institution in Falsterbo.

A cold January day the raft was ready to use for mounting the fenders. The choice of marine fender system was LE-V fender, which has two rubber legs mounted with a shield of UHMW-PE. The rubber leg for optimal energy absorption and the low friction shield to glide on. As there are tide difference in the Falsterbo channel it is important that the boat can glide sufficient when moored.

Now we wish them good luck! If you are interested in Lifeboat Institution you can read more for example on Royal Nation Lifeboat Institution – Saving Lives at Sea.

PsG CONTINUOUS FENDER WALL A COOPERATIVE MOORING SOLUTION

2018-11-14

Sometimes solutions need to fulfill several aspects. In winter when snow and ice usually keep the working boats busy just to have the mooring fairway free from ice, they cannot go too close to the usual fender system in case of getting stucked and in worste case destroy a fully good functinal fender system. With the PsG continuos fender wall you do not have the issue to get stucked in the fender system as the whole wall is covered with UHMW-PE pads. Behind you still have the LE-V rubber element to absorb the energy and have the right reactionforce for your berthing ship. This will work even with different ships as you can add vertical LE V fendersystem to fit other heights.
